Oh my god IS IT THURSDAY YET?

Thinking about 2x20 and the Director's Cuts, a possibility for the ep popped into my head...
How awesome would it be if Dean called alterna!Sam "Sammy," and Sam looked at him like he was insane and said "Dean, you haven't called me that since I was ten." I think it would be AWESOME. A wee bit heartbreaking, but awesome nonetheless. Because it would show how close OUR Dean and Sam are, how Sam tolerates (hell, WELCOMES) such a personal name from ONLY Dean. Whereas in alternaworld, they would have drifted apart and not kept such open affection between them. ALSkfjsdlfkj. Thursday YET?

I am mildly panicked about orgo. And stat. And about getting packed in time to leave Saturday. OH GOD.

I've seen that pop up in more than one fic. Probably the best random piece of fanon ever.

The pretty doesn't hurt, that's for sure.

Out of curiosity, do you now get what I mean when I say I almost love fanon more than canon? The fic goes places the canon never can, and there's just some really wonderful details and character developments brought to the table by fanfic writers that just don't work into the show they've put on television.

(Coming out of left field to say I now fully adore your LJ header, by the way.)

Yeah, I really do. Especially when I read all this backstory fic and then go back to the show and think "wait, do we really not know that about John's family?" And the fanon idea of sentient!Atlantis is my favoritest thing ever. So yeah, the devil's in the details. And that's not counting the moments like Rodney mocking John's hair that could easily make it into the show.

Heehee! Thank you! My favoritest boys all in one place *smishes them all with love*

Okay, cool :) It must have been unique, coming from the sometimes very dark world of fic and finding that canon is really just rather silly! *laughs*

Well, I'm familiar enough with the world of fic to translate the amount of angst (and sex) into a realistic expectation of the show. I'm amazed that fandom continues to pull so much depth out of silliness.

Fandom is pretty fucking spectacular, innit? It amazes me all the time. I mean, there's so much TALENT here. And it's such a great venue, a built-in audience for all aspiring writers! Yay fandom :D

I'm pretty sure that without fandom I'd still be writing bad Mary Sure original fiction. The worst part is that I'd be thinking it was good. Yay fandom indeed. ♥
